Nusakan, Lyran Commonwealth October 24 3029

Today at last the Genyosha met the Kell Hounds; this was to have been the culminating battle in the feud begun over a decade ago between Col Morgan Kell and Tai-sa Yorinaga Kurita. When the two leaders decided to settle it by duel, all action stopped. No-one moved as the skilled warrior Yorinaga ducked and wove his Warhammer, sending shot after shot into Col Kell's Archer. Morgan Kell did not return fire nor even seek to evade. None of these shots seemed to hit. There was a long conversation on the private band. Then combat resumed, ending with Col Kell's 'Mech fallen ... and Tai-sa Kurita's going into heat shut down. Honor was at length declared satisfied, to the cheers of both forces.

Why didn't Col Kell fire? His foe had killed his brother, and many of his men. Our reporter had no explanation, but the events are a matter of record. BattleTechnology promises more coverage - as soon as we find out what went on!
